I also received IRS Notice CP11 indicating I owe $2800 because of the Recovery Rebate Credit. Entered on line 30 per the instructions. Is there any recourse w TT?

No there is not ...

 

A reduction in your refund for the recovery rebate credit is most often caused by user error---when you were asked how much you received for the third stimulus check -- the one for $1400 per person sent out from March to May last year----did you enter the total amount correctly?   Did you use the amount from BOTH spouse's letters 6475?   Or did you say you did not receive the full amount and thereby put an amount on line 30 of your Form 1040?  If you received the full amount already then your line 30 should have been blank.   There should only be an amount on line 30 if you did NOT receive all of the 3rd stimulus.

Does the IRS show that you received a $1400 per person stimulus or EIP check in 2021?   Did you receive it?   When you were asked on your tax return did you say no?   Was there $1400  per person on line 30 of your tax return?

 

If the IRS says you got $1400 last year but you did not receive it you can have it traced.

If you need to trace a payment that the IRS says has been issued to you, mail or fax a completed IRS Form 3911, Taxpayer Statement Regarding Refund.

Do you mean you had $2800 on line 30?   Did you receive the $2800 sometime after mid-March in 2021?  If you already received it then line 30 should have been blank.   If you received that money and put it on line 30 it was as if you were trying to get it twice, which the IRS corrected for you.

 

LOTS of people have made mistakes this year with the recovery rebate credit by "forgetting" that they received the $1400 per person stimulus checks last year.  They answered no to the questions for the  recovery recovery rebate credit and put the $1400 per person on line 30 of their returns.  But you cannot get it twice, so the IRS removes it when it is there by mistake.

@profesrdan - you have recourse to TT only if the calcuations in their software are wrong.  They do not take responsilbity for the data you enter!  If you enter the wrong information, obviously, the result is going to be incorrect!

 

At one point in the interview, TT asked how much you had ALREADY received.  if you were filing "joint", there were TWO letters and the TWO letters were to be added together; many made the mistake of thinking the two letters were duplicates and / or didn't see the 2nd letter

 

Suggest checking your bank account from March - May, 2021 to confirm you received the stimulus.  It should have been $1400 for each person on your tax return.
